Can you please watch the sub?

Lupa is Dadi

I'm good with anything

Dezmond Broadway

Well now that I have the choice. I want them gone. I’m enjoying the hell out of this reaction either way. This use to be one of my favs when I first started watching anime.

Kdn

Those subs tweakin

Alvaro Garcia

I remember first seeing the weird subs my initial watch of this, got so confused lol

Gabby Boakye-yiadom

Honestly it was only episode 6 that was distracting since the subs were really delayed to what was happening on screen.

yaboyroshi

we talk a lot and sometimes can drown out the audio so I generally try to include them

Prime

I’m fine either way just tell Lupa he’s saying the title wrong lol

Venom9518

Boruto reaction when?

Darren Banks

It was only episode 6. The subs were okay until about a few minutes in and then they got delayed somehow. Made things kinda confusing. I particular like the subtitles on everything because it can give a dubbed scene two different connotations which is always interesting. But episode 6 was tough 😅

kurumi Tokisaki

I seen yall react to a show that was dub w/o subtitles and yall talked over the whole thing. I rather have the messed up subtitles and know whats going on

Evan Jardin

I personally prefer the subs on just so I can read along while I listen to y'all, but I'm enjoying the reactions either way

Senpai

It's just that Episode 6's subtitles were pretty messed up and de-synced(and I think it legit had another episodes subtitles in there.). You should probably upload a subtitless version of Episode 6. Other than that, they're completely fine when they're not busted like episode 6's subtitles.

The Truth

Beastars?

Senpai

Episode 6 legit made me feel sick because of how out of sync those subtitles were. 😂

Devin B

I'm fine with the subs but I would just double check the edit before you post it to make sure everything is synced right.

DBJXXVIII

Watch everybody that voted for no subs complain that y’all talk too much and they cant hear anything 😂

Austin S

Definitely NEED subs, like he said they drown out the audio sometimes and makes it hard to know what’s going on, also like someone else mentioned it’s interesting to see the two connotations of what’s being said

Senpai

Subs or no subs, they're still going to make that complaint. 😂

HollowedSlayer

You really shouldn't be using their reaction videos as your first time watching a show.

SixPathTobi

not a market substitute. Watch the show before hand. Otherwise dont complain about not knowing whats going on.

Vincent S Deluca

The Issue last episode was that the Subs for Ep 1 were playing over ep 6, they didnt match what was happening at all THATS what was distracting, not their existence itself

hokeypokey

I think like even though normally a poll would be majority vote I think in this case 40% of people wanting subs is a really good amount to keep them on. They are of very little difference to the people who don't want them but those who want them on might also need them on.

hokeypokey

I don't see why their reaction shouldn't be the first time watching a show :/ I haven't seen Gurren Lagann before and don't plan to watch it on my own so why shouldn't I experience it along with them? If you guys have ever watched a show with people who like to talk about stuff as it happens you'd know that it can be hard to focus on what characters are saying.

Austin Yun

Hella need the subs because obviously y'all talk during the episode so either the anime subs stay or you guys close caption yourselves lmao

13

Even if they dont match, yall be talking over the show sometimes. Just keep them on imo

Drake Chuckle

Just keep 'em on, some people are hard of hearing. It is what it is.

Outcast107

While I voted for no subs, I don't truly mind the subtitles. It was just that last episode was very jarring with them not matching up at all lol.

HollowedSlayer

Then people shouldn't complain that they can't hear dialogue/understand what's happening in the show when the gang are talking/reacting, simple. I thought it was obvious to have watched the shows yourself before re-watching with their the reaction.

Austin S

I think its a little ridiculous to demand that everyone have watched every single show they react to beforehand. I think it's perfectly fine if people get introduced to new shows through their reactions and ONLY find they enjoy it watching along

Anonymous

Keep them on I like reading them and can't hear very well

Aidan Price

Wish yall would watch the og audio

None None

I haven't seen TTGL in like 8 years. I don't remember half of the shit that goes on.

La Plus

Turn off dub = problem solved

Merfhew

There seems to be a possible misunderstanding here. The reason these videos are uploaded, and the reason we pay for membership on their Patreon, is so we can watch their reactions. If their method of providing entertainment is getting in the way of understanding what's going on, the shows they watch are usually pretty accessible to watch legally. I'm really glad that YaBoyRoshi reads the comment sections and listens to our feedback. If these subtitles interfere with your enjoyment of their reaction, that's certainly a valid point. Likewise, some people need subtitles to remind them of what happened during a show they previously watched through legal means. I realize this isn't a popular thing to say, but if you're watching this show for the first time and you want accurate subtitles because you can't follow the episode over their reactions, that's missing the point entirely.

Overlord Saber

I'm not one to complain, but that last episodes subs went rogue. Its either or for me honestly though lol

Austin S

Not gonna lie it was a little hard to understand where you were going with your point at first but yes I completely agree, the slightly inaccurate subs they are currently providing are fine, with the exception of episode 6 (I have yet to watch).

Austin S

No one had a serious problem with the subtitles before episode 6, as long as they aren't complete dog poo, I think every party will be satisfied.

Merfhew

If the reaction you're watching complies with Fair Use guidelines, then I don't really care if you've watched the show before. Less than 10 minutes of footage should be enough for new fans if they really want to watch it on their own time later. However, if you're watching full-length reactions that display the entire episode (which is technically illegal unless you have permission from the copyright holders), that's when I have an opinion.

Merfhew

I tend to lose my point (and people's attention) when I ramble on for more than a paragraph or two. xD

Bob Denver

I just said no subs because the dub is fire I don't really care either way

Merfhew

Then again, what other people decide to watch or not watch doesn't impact me, so I should probably get off my soapbox.

HollowedSlayer

Austin that's not the point I'm making, the point I'm making is this is a Reaction channel. For people to complain they can't hear the audio because the gang are talking is nonsensical, if you want to watch the show and hear every detail, watch it yourself first. If there has been a new show they're reacting to and I haven't seen it before I go and watch it myself so I can understand everything.

HollowedSlayer

I think people are relying on the reactions as their sole way of watching the shows. Every single show they've reacted to is easily accessible legally.

The subtitles in episode 1-5 were fine but in 6 they looped over and ended up being minutes out of sync with the episode.

Tim Chaos

The problem was only with episode 6. For whatever reason, it was showing the subtitles for the alternative version of the episode that’s heavily censored. In that version, entire scenes are cut (you can probably guess which lol) so it’s filled with recap filler and the characters reminiscing. It doesn’t happen again in the series, I don’t think.

XerBlade

"(couldnt find a version that did)" If you can ever find a version of subtitles that actually matches the English dub for any show, someone fucked up. Captions SHOULD match the English dub, but captions and subtitles are completely different things (as much as some services [lookin' at you, Amazon] seem to not get that). The point of subtitles is to match the *original* dub (but translated, obviously), which is naturally going to be different from a localized dub. Related: It's seriously annoying when I try to play a game with a shit-tier English dub, switch it to Japanese, and it still uses subtitles matching the English localization (note: legit every game with an option to switch audio tracks does this). Anyone with a basic understanding of Japanese but not quite good enough to turn the subs off (assuming it even lets you) is going to have their brains fried with constantly seeing and hearing 2 *completely unrelated* sentences (which always happens with shit-tier English dubs).

Pan Cakes

I feel like subs help get a better understanding to what their talking about. .

sim

It's only a problem with episode six and now we going to lose subs cause of it, sigh

Bruhh

When that 91 days reaction coming?

Brian J Taylor

Hold on, they doin Gurren?

Reminder

English is not my native language so its hard for me to understand/remember whats going on without subs so i need them to continue this reactions

Ohais

I do find them distracting. But if they are others like the person above me, then I'd say override the vote and keep them on for the people who struggle with English and are hard of hearing. But also, tbh, that last episodes subs were insane. Nothing written was going along with what was being said at all, and might have been more confusing than good. Maybe if you're able to find something that matches as closely as possible, that might be better than just getting rid of them completely

Freeofgreed

Keep the subtitles on. It can be hard to hear what the characters are saying sometimes, and it's good for accessibility. It's bad enough that we have to watch the dub, please don't take away the subtitles from us too lol.

Thamor

Doesn't matter for some of us, we like the content being watched in the original language and VA's. Just again another comparison you would want to watch Simpsons in like Chinese language?

Matthew Osteen

bro that last episode the subs were like 4 minutes behind. shut that shit off.

Denickart

The subtitles are fine. The last episode just used subtitles from the censored version of episode 6

EienNoSuiHeiSen

Bruh this sucks, the first dubbed show they do they put subs in so I can finally watch with them and follow along, gets taken down almost immediately lol. I love the dub and sub versions, but I cant hear when they do dubbed shows so the subtitles were a life save. Even if the subtitles didn't match at all, the gist of what they're talking about is still there, but if that many people feel like they're that distracting, I understand. Im just salty lol

Lord Winters

Keep them on, it'll help us watcher, you can just ignore it yourself.

Weltall Gaia

ep 6 is fucked up because there are 2 completely different versions of it. The original was mostly a clipshow, and the subs for it were never changed for the completed version.

BZD

Please read the comment section, regardless of the vote.

Darren Zeraus

Might just be me being salty about going dubs over subs on this one but just saying, this wouldn't be happening if you went with subs. I'll see myself out now.

Stephen D

Honestly, I am fine with whatever.

Johnathon

Like yo ass could tell if subs were properly translated anyway.

Sun

I think you're misunderstanding the problem that Roshi is addressing. The English subtitles of the video displayed together along with the reactions do not align with the audio, hence why it's distracting for others to read and listen since they're both saying two different things. In any case, sub > dub but that's just my opinion :)

toptier sagat

Please watch Dororo next. No dubs.

Anonymous

I prefer no subs BUT since the internet is more than just America you have viewers who are listening in their second or maybe even third language. Subs can help them a lot

Yanpo

Sad for the deaf and hearing impaired.

Alvin Smith

Honestly I think you should keep the subs. People who have trouble hearing won't be able to hear the show at all. People who are mad at the subs can just tough it out and get over it.

DatKid_Kaneki

they do fs talk alot😭 but them subs was distracting me i didnt even know what was going on

The Pebble

You'll be the one "toughing it out" when we win the poll and subs are gone lol glhf with that

Ohais

Imagine letting your ego get in the way of accessibility for those who need it

Justin Hutchinson

initially i voted turn them off, then i read the comments. i can ignore the subs myself.

returntolife

please keep them on. i know it's in english but sometimes it's hard to hear the show over you guys reacting.

Alvin Smith

@HerpMePrease What's up with you? It's not for me, ik there's plenty of niggas who got a hard time hearing the show without subtitles. There ain't no toughing it out for them. You're an asshole and it ain't funny, it just makes you look goofy.

Davon Thomas

The last episode the subtitles was like behind the whole episode then all of a sudden caught up in the final 5 minutes.

Zonalsteve

Keep them on Please ! for people hard of hearing

Nopal

usually I'd agree, but they were so out of sync that it made it worse imo

LITBOYPRO

Doesn't bother me either way. but a minor distraction is worth dealing with for those who actually need them to enjoy your content. Appreciate all that you three do. Been such an enjoyment watching some shows I forgot about.

Legion

I believe that the subtitles for episode 6 are glitched. They're glitched for me as well at home. I believe that the others are fine. It's nice to have them on for those who can't hear too well

Chris D. Jones

I only say turn off sub just cause minor spoilers

C T

i cant believe theres actually people who care when its fuckin DUBBED. are you guys retarded or something? this is like some mental disability where words fuck with your focus?

Nikolai Cannady

This would be terrible for people like me who are hearing impaired

K. Unknown

so what I'm reading here is that you're actually so dumb that you don't know that people with physical disabilities that affect hearing exist, and you're so dumb you haven't read the rest of the comments to see that there are a bunch of people here who have those problems. and actually, yes, there are mental disabilities that can make it hard to understand spoken dialogue in shows, especially in reactions when sometimes characters and reactors are talking at the same time. this is why it's a good idea to think before you post, because now you're publicly a dumbass AND a complete selfish asshole. keep up the good work, genius.

jesse almonte

Thank you From domeone with a sight disability who has hearing impaired friends

Shaun A

Keep the subs, apparently you have a lot of hearing impaired supporters. Lets not be selfish.

Fdestinyz55

Simple, just watch the Japanese Dub with Subs on. Hearing impaired or not wouldn't matter anymore. This issue wouldn't even exist if yall had chose to react to the show in Japanese Dub.

Calfrezie

the dub sounded better thats why they chose to watch it in english they just put subs on for people who want to read it

Alvin Smith

@Kayla Unknown I'm pretty sure he was talking to the people who were saying to turn off the subtitles. He's agreeing with you

Ghoullie

im part of the hearing impaired crowd so id prefer the subs buuut, the last episode the subtitles "restarted"? (They were lines from the beginning of the episode, repeating itself, but in the middle or smthn), so at that point it was useless to me anyway... kee 'em if you can i guess?

Kermit

Netflix cc subs are annoying and excessive, however, that saint Germain reveal subtitle spoiler in the last Castlevania episode that pissed off Lupa was funny af
